[quote=mdk] Unchallenged ideas aren't healthy. Didn't colonialism build the world we have today? Didn't it radically stabilize countries like India (I mean, before it gunned down thousands of citizens in the street)? Globalism only exists because of the colonies. Maybe it could've been different, but it wasn't, and things are pretty sweet right now, so...... idunno. Point being, if you've never thought that anybody could ever defend something, you need to start thinking more. [/quote] India is not exactly ideal. Under British rule they were brutally repressed, starved, and genocided(I know plenty of Indians who could back this up). And then nowadays they have the whole sweat shop slavery thing going on. There's a reason why left-wing ideas are on the rise there.
